Answer / sridhar
It induces very High Voltage when switch is made On and the
Tube light ignites to establish flow of Electron from one
side to other and vice versa. After tube light glows it
reduces the voltage between the terminals of the tube
lights which is sufficient to keep it glowing.

choke is a high inductive device and does not allowed sudden
change of current , if it happens then a high voltage
induced as per the equation- V= L di/dt. Starter helps to
break the circuit as initially current flows , from supply
to choke,tube light one coil, starter, tube light other coil
then back to supply. when starter opens the circuit the
induced voltage across the tube light is sufficient to
ionise the fluorescent material inside the tube light and
the current path made through it. and tube light glows.

Answer / kalolia alap r
if we create load graph of tube light,it required very high
starting p.d because of to excite the electrons of the gas
filled in the t.l...and inductor stores and discharge the
energy so T.L required choke..

Answer / vignesh
dont mine my dears...i think this answer like a starter...if i made mistake pls reply me...in viki0607@yahoo.in
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 4 Yes | 12 No |
choke is used to improve the power factor and to suppress
high harmonic current and surge.
